Funny shit.

i'm a dipsomaniac.

New England bred, lived in (west) Hollywood and retired South. Writer, designer and meme warrior. Too deep most times but shallow enough as the rest when it comes to the daily rituals and distractions of life. I kinda dabble in.

Well lets see. Currently I have been working in the special effects business for, oh I don't know, about 20 years or so(amateur and professionally). I've worked on some of the biggest films in movie history and several that should remain unspoken. I've worked in Los Angeles for about 11 years now. I've ran show crews, been mold supervisor for a few shops, and just an overall lab grunt.

I Live In Truckee California, I have a beautiful girlfriend, I love to Mountain Bike,ski,hike,camp, work and I miss my family. Check out my lines!! www.nobis.ca, www.panoptx.com, www.auclairgloves.com, www.sportlegs.com, www.nerveusa.com.
